Which games made you go into an "addiction phase"?
-
Factorio. I blinked and a month went by the first time I played it. It ruins my sleep schedule like no other.
Absolutely love it
There is a reason we call it Cracktorio

For me it was Terraria, Satisfactory, Tetris Effect Master Mode, Minecraft with Mekanism mod & CSGO / CS2 (almost 2000 hours in CS alone).

️ 🫡Minecraft, holy shit, I have a singleplayer, creative world that I spent hours every day building on for 8 years or so.
That map is gigantic, and I even saved it from a hard disk crash

Shattered Pixel Dungeon. Spent years on that one.
I always played wizard 🧙 One of the few great open source games for android.

️ 🫡Path of exile for sure. Everytime there is a new league, i put a lot of hours into it.

The most severe was Warframe. Not the most hours, but the most hours in the shortest time. 200 hours in 2 weeks. No I didn't do anything else.
Other than that, Runescape, Minecraft, Baldur's gate 3 all have just deleted days. Runescape and Minecraft have deleted months if not a year of time.

Dark Souls 1 and Hollow Knight
Saying Hollow Knights soundtrack slaps is a big understatement. Love that game. The song Dirtmouth gives me chills everytime.

️ 🫡Lots, chrono trigger, ffvi-x, Mario 64, basically every yakuza game, sekiro, breath of the wild, a ton more. Embarassing ones sometimes like that power washing game because I got it for free and was like “this will be dumb” then kept going and going and going
Some older games that I’d probably power through now but at the time cheating/save states/youtube wasn’t easily accessible (gamefaqs existed but text based walkthroughs hit much different). Like the ps1 survival horror games: resident evil 1-3, silent hill, Dino crisis, parasite eve, etc. when you know what to do most of those can be run through in a few hours but in 1997 on the original hardware (no save states) and at best a txt file faq to guide you if you get stuck it would take some time to figure it out. Then with ones like re2 that had multiple routes and endings you’d play it like 6-7 times at least

️ 🫡It's a toss up between Hardspace: Shipbreaker, My time At Portia and Just Cause 3 for me. Three very different games. Floaty slicey boom, cute engineer mining and grapple fly shooty basically
Also very much in an "addiction phase" for the demo of G-Rebels which sadly goes away on Sunday
-
After playing Satisfactory I thought I'd love factorio too, but somehow never really got into it.
Maybe try again? I played satisfactory at first and thought factorio looked stupid, but having a roboport network for the first time felt soo goooooood
-
historically: gmod. recently: oxygen not included.
Over two thousand hours in ONI, so I feel ya...
-
Duke Nukem 3D.
Then Quake I and II.
I'm still playing the latter many times a week.I played alot of quake III arena on LAN

Hardspace. Damn. I cannot stop reinstalling that one.
-
I always played wizard 🧙 One of the few great open source games for android.
For me, the frequency of which character I played is probably huntress>wizard=assassin>warrior. But I kind of fell out of the loop when evan (the dev) introduced a whole new class
-
Hardspace. Damn. I cannot stop reinstalling that one.
Really wish they would have extended that game. So much potential and then they seemed to have given up.

My friend was the same way, largely due Factorio being in 2D. He was able to get into Satisfactory due to it's 3D nature.

️ 🫡No Man's Sky. Keeps drawing me in.
Homeworld 1, 2, Cataclysm. Forget the latest one.
Need for Speed Most Wanted.
Horizon 1 & 2
So many more...

Some hurdles are so hard to overcome, I tend to give up at one point.

️ 🫡wrote last edited by [email protected]I think most here are too generous with the term addiction.
I had to uninstall Hearthstone years ago, because I compulsively played it multiple hours every single day, despite not really having fun playing it anymore. It was either grinding to get cards or tilting on ladder. That's what I would call an addiction.
Edit: After Hearthstone I played a lot of Slay the Spire and after that Marvel Snap. Never more then I enjoyed it, so I wouldn't count those.

️ 🫡Minecraft and Factorio.
Both mixed in a little IRL depression and I was living vicariously through Steve or making factories.
